pugpete1108 62 1 Cars Posted October 14, 2006 as the title suggests is there an alternative i can use as mine is cracked. would a 306 16v one fit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandy 189 Posted October 14, 2006 It's virtually the same internally, but doesn't brace to the gearbox. Certainly worked fine on my 309. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sandy 189 Posted October 14, 2006 I was using the 1.8 16v 306 sump and it bolts onto any XU engine. It has a baffle and trapdoor. You need to remove the spacer/ladder on the Mi16. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James_m 0 Posted October 14, 2006 Every Xu10 has the trap door in my experiance. you can keep the spacer plate if you get an extended oil pump pick up, with the added bonus of more oil capacity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pugpete1108 62 1 Cars Posted October 14, 2006 has a gti6 got a spacer then ? i havent got down that far yet , still nice to know i can use a std one from another model as it looked like my search for a gti6 sump was going nowhere cheers guys Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandy 189 Posted October 14, 2006 No spacer on the GTi6, only the 1905cc alloy engines. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
